Parasitic plants often show changes in chloroplast genome size CALCIUM FACTOR 350 MG and gene content.Here we obtained the complete chloroplast genome of Tolypanthus maclurei, a hemiparasitic shrub of Loranthaceae, using genome skimming method.It is 123,581 bp in length and contains a 72,910 bp large single copy region, a 9,731 bp small single copy region and two 20,650 bp inverted repeats.119 genes, consisting of 77 protein-coding Oven Frame Repair Kit genes, 34 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes, were predicted.

All the ndh genes except ndhB are lost and five protein-coding genes are pseudogenized.Phylogenetic analysis shows that Tolypanthus is sister to Macrosolen within Loranthaceae.
